Offset Fitment..

[W1ngnut]

Hi All,

I know that everyone is sick of seeing people ask what will fit on their car, and yes, I've read through the Wheel Offset guide and the 'Real life' fitment thread.

The only problem is, is that I have a 1% negative feeling that makes throwing a lot of money at rims so very difficult.

Could someone please let me know whether any of these 2 sizes below will fit an R33 Series 2 GTST WITHOUT using spacers:

18 x 8 +36 (front)

18 x 9 +35 (rear)

--And--

18 x 8 +36 (front)

18 x 9 +36 (rear)

Thanks heaps if you can guys, again, sorry for this post as i know everyone is tired of them. I'm more tired of wasting money on incorrect parts.

they will fit without any issues. they only issue you may have is dependant on the design of the spokes. if the spokes are stright u may find that it just touches the calipers. sinething with a slight curve is best

The rims in question are Volk GT-Cs Face 1

GT-C's are f**kin expensive brand new. I know where you're coming from when you say you don't want to spend heaps of cash on wheels that don't fit.

With the disk type, you can look at the raysengineering site and they should have a list of different face designs. It ranges from I think it was H for high, M medium and L for low. The lower one would give you the most dish, but less brake clearance, higher face type, more for brake clearance. The list should also tell you if they'll clear the 4 pot brakes. From what I can remember, it was M for the front and L for the rears and they'll fit, BUT make sure for yourself or email them.

Good luck with it and post up some pics when they arrive.

Cheers

Thanks Adam,

The GT-Cs are second hand but barely a scratch on them..

They have the numbers on the back stamped:

18 x 8.0 J (A-E) of. +36 PCD114.3 5H GL

18 x 9.0 J (C-O) of. +35 PCD114.3 5H GL

So judging by your explanation of the letter H, M and L; I have either H (5H) or L (GL) which puts me back where I was..confused.

Thanks n15m0. The more 99% i can get the better.. I was 99% myself as well, but that 1% is a lot of do re mi..

Fronts are under column A which I believe is hi disk clearance

Rears are under column C which is low disk (more dish)

So you should be fine.
